Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process, managed by The Police and Crime Commissioner for Leicestershire, involves the award of a contract for the provision of Sexual Violence and Abuse Services. This process falls under the services category and utilises the direct procurement method for a direct award, signifying an extension of the current agreement. The contract was awarded to Freeva, a Leicester-based SME, on 17th June 2026 with a value of £218,200.8 gross. This award is further supported by UK legislation (UKPGA 2023/54). The service will cover multiple regions across the United Kingdom (including UKC, UKD, UKE, UKF, UKG, UKH, UKI, UKJ, UKK), with a contract period from 1st July 2026 to 31st March 2028.

Companies offering innovative service solutions within the public service sector might find such contracts beneficial, given the extension rationale and the vital nature of the services involved. The contract's comprehensive geographical scope across several UK regions further underscores its scale and potential impact.
